You're Welcome Jules! I always try to make someone smile...glad I could do that for ya. If we aren't smiling and giving ourselves credit for our hard work and dedication then we are never going to be happy...whether we are skinny or heavy.

Oh, I have a new goal!!!! I want to be able to go into V.S. and buy a bra off the shelf! None of this "Just my size" crap!
